The Dawning of a New America – Shining the Light on the underbelly of Corruption on the Political Establishment in our Nation’s Capital. Freedom of the Press is no cover for Criminal Conspiracy!


If the news media colluded with “Obama administration” officials on criminal activity, have they waived their right to Constitutional Protection under the First Amendment?



Can reporters, anchors and executives of CNN, MSNBC, NBC, The New York Times and Washington Post among others be co-collaborators in criminal crimes against the US Constitution?


Should they be indicted and prosecuted for criminal conduct?


Stay tuned for results from the Department of Justice criminal investigation of politics, politicians and press!

America’s beloved Secretariat, the legendary Triple Crown winner whose records still stand today, gets bigger than life honor.






Secretariat, the champion and most beloved thoroughbred racehorse of all time, finally has been honored with a bronze statue worthy of the incredible accomplishments of such a super horse.


A magnificent new statue has been installed in the home of Bluegrass racing, Lexington, Kentucky, to honor the Triple Crown champion of 1973.  Today, forty-six years after the astonishing success of Secretariat, many of the world records Secretariat achieved remain unbroken, a testament of the superiority of the champion.


Renowned sculptor Jocelyn Russell created a larger-than-life monument of Triple Crown racehorse Secretariat.  Known as the “people’s champion” Secretariat completed the most amazing Triple Crown record in history.

   
Nearly 50 years ago he galloped memorably into our lives, muscles pulsing hard beneath a coat of brilliant red, hooves stretching farther forward in a stride longer than any horse before or since. He was a wonder, Secretariat, a vision of the perfect horse who left us all too soon.


Just as Secretariat was red, or chestnut, in real life, his bronze monument bears a red patina. He could not look more lifelike, which was Russell’s concern all along when she accepted this commission 18 months ago.


The artist said many times that she knew her audience would be a tough sell, in the heart of horse country.


Virginia-bred Secretariat’s final home at Claiborne Farm Kentucky just up the road from Lexington in the heart of thoroughbred horse farms, is a revered stop for Kentucky horse fans ever since Secretariat retired from racing in 1973 until his death in 1989 at age 19.


A reprint of an earlier article of the life of Secretariat follows.


Kentucky Derby Countdown - Secretariat 1973 - The Greatest Triple Crown and Thoroughbred Champion of all Time


Secretariat - The People's Champion



It is Kentucky Derby week and once again time to share our top thoroughbred stories of the legends of Horse Racing.  Our next offering is the greatest champion in our history, Secretariat.



I had occasion to see this magnificent horse in Kentucky and to watch the three races along with millions of Americans as Secretariat not only made history but shattered records every time he stepped on a the track at a Triple Crown race.



You should take a few minutes to watch the three videos showing the Triple Crown that year, 1973, when Secretariat became an American legend. Nothing has ever been achieved close to his performance before or since that spring.



Although Seattle Slew and Affirmed both won the Triple Crown the same decade of the 1970's the performance by Secretariat stands alone in the history books.

Enjoy a flashback to the most incredible six minutes in horse racing history.

Secretariat’s Record-Breaking Run, 46 Years Later
(Originally posted 2017)


Forty-six years ago Secretariat galloped to victory at the Belmont Stakes, capturing the final leg of the Triple Crown and becoming the first horse in 25 years to achieve one of sport’s most difficult feats. In a career that spanned just 21 races over the course of a year, the 3-year-old thoroughbred captured the hearts and minds of a nation weary from the soon-to-be-ended Vietnam War and ongoing Watergate investigations. Four decades after Secretariat entered the record books, check out eight surprising facts about one of America’s most famous athletes.


1. Secretariat’s fate rested on a coin toss.

In the fall of 1969, stable owners Ogden Phipps and Penny Chenery met in the offices of the New York Racing Association for what turned out to be one of the most important coin tosses in sports history. The winner would receive the recently born foal of the sire Bold Ruler and the mare Hasty Matelda, while the loser would get a second foal from Bold Ruler with a different mare, Somethingroyal. Phipps won the coin toss, but Chenery won for the record books: In March of the following year Somethinroyal gave birth to a red chestnut colt with three distinctive white “socks” on his legs–Secretariat. Chenery went on to fame as the legendary horse’s owner, while the Phipps family, successful breeders for six generations, didn’t win the Kentucky Derby until May of this year, when Orb captured the 139th Race for the Roses.



2. Secretariat was named Horse of the Year twice.
After losing his very first race, at Aqueduct on July 4, 1972, Secretariat lost just once more in his 2-year-old campaign, and even that was due to a controversial disqualification in a race. At the end of that season, he was unanimously voted the winner of the Eclipse Award as Horse of the Year—the first 2-year-old to be so honored. In fact, only one other 2-year-old has won the award: Favorite Trick, in 1997. He was a shoo-in the following year, when his Triple Crown wins earned him top honors in every major racing award.



3. Nerves were on edge when Secretariat lost the run-up to the Derby.

Secretariat easily won the first two races as a 3-year-old, before running a disappointing third in the Wood Memorial, his final tune-up before Churchill Downs. With many in the racing world dismissing his chances at the Derby, Secretariat’s owner and trainers believed that their horse’s showing at the Wood had little to do with his stamina or possible nerves. Just days before the race, an abscess had been discovered on the top of the colt’s mouth, leaving him in severe pain. While some prognosticators now touting another horse, Sham, a half-cousin of Secretariat’s, as the Derby favorite, Secretariat’s team successfully lanced the painful infection and the horse was soon on the mend.




4. Secretariat set records that are still standing today.

As the 1973 Derby began, Secretariat broke out of the gate last, before quickly moving up on the field. Accelerating with each quarter-mile segment, he crossed the finish line at 1:59 2/5th, a new (and still standing) course record. In the 40 years since, only one other horse, Monarchos, has finished in under 2 minutes. Two weeks later at the Preakness he once again raced to catch up with the rest of the field before winning easily. Though his victory was never in doubt, his official time remained a point of controversy for almost 40 years. Members of the Daily Racing Form had clocked him at 1:53 2/5th, a new track record, while officials at Pimlico posted his official time as 1:54 2/5th. It wasn’t until June 2012 that the Maryland Racing Commission, using a forensic review of the race, determined that not only had Secretariat set a course record in 1973, he had been even faster than previously believed—1:53 flat.




5. Secretariat was a media superstar.

Secretariat-mania reached a fever pitch as he prepared for the final leg of the Triple Crown: The week before the Belmont, Sports Illustrated, Time and Newsweek magazines featured him on their covers in the same week—an unheard of accomplishment that has never been repeated. After his victory, demand for the thoroughbred’s time grew go great that his owners hired the William Morris Agency to oversee his public appearances, surely making him the rare horse with a Hollywood agent. His fame continued long after his career ended. He was inducted into the Horseracing Hall of Fame just a year after winning the Triple Crown. In 1999, the U.S. Postal Service issued a commemorative Secretariat stamp, making him the first equine to earn the honor; and ESPN named him to their list of the 100 greatest athletes of the 20th century.




6. Secretariat won the Belmont Stakes by a jaw-dropping margin.

Racing against only four other horses in New York, Secretariat was considered such a favorite that no third-place “show” bets were accepted on him. As was the case at both the Derby and the Preakness, Secretariat faced off against Sham, but this time his cousin was unable to truly challenge him, finishing last. Secretariat, however, opened an enormous lead on the field that kept growing with every stride. By the time he crossed the finish line in yet another record-setting time of 2:24, he was a full 31 lengths in front of the second-place finisher. Secretariat had become the first horse in 25 years to win the Triple Crown. Rather than trade in their winning tickets (which would have netted just $.20 in profit), most people who bet on Secretariat decided to keep them as souvenirs instead.





7. Secretariat bailed out his financially beleaguered owners even before he won the Triple Crown.


Helen “Penny” Chenery had inherited her father’s Meadow Stable in Virginia following his death in 1973, but the organization had begun losing money years earlier. Desperate to shore up the family’s shaky finances, Chenery agreed to a “syndicating” agreement with Seth Hancock, the new owner of one of the country’s most prestigious breeding operations, Kentucky Claiborne Farm. In February 1973, four months before his history-making victory at Churchill Downs, it was announced that 32 breeding “shares” had been sold at a record-breaking price of $190,000 a share, netting Claiborne Farms and Meadow Stable more than $6 million—$30 million in today’s money.




8. Secretariat was euthanized at just 19 years old.
Secretariat’s record off the track was not as successful as it had been on it. Put out to stud in late 1973, he sired nearly 600 foals, including one horse that sold for more than $1 million at auction—but nearly all of his male offspring failed miserably at the racetrack. Secretariat’s grandsires fared a bit better, with grandsons A.P. Indy a Horse of the Year winner and great-granddaughter Rags to Riches the 2007 Belmont Stakes champion. In the fall of 1989, the 19-year-old champion developed laminitis, an incurable hoof condition; he was euthanized in October of that year.

The Melchizedek Chronicles - Impeachment - Last Gasp of the Progressive/Liberal Establishment and Mainstream Media Mouthpieces?


As the media feeding frenzy rages on and the Dump Trumpsters are foaming at the mouth there are several upcoming events with the potential to far overshadow the political circus in our nation's capitol.  In truth, these yet to happen events have the potential to suck the life out of the political establishment that now is on life-support systems.


Collapse of New Old World Order

Of course, the backdrop for what might happen should be warning enough to the Trump haters who dominate the main street news and clog the arteries of the Capitol in Washington, DC.  You see, as the impeachment vortex swirls around Washington, DC and New York City, the last remnants of the old New World Order advocates, the general public has already rejected the zealots.


Confidence in Congress and the news media in America has crashed to the lowest levels ever seen and the public believes well over half of all news media reports are fake, phony or fabricated.  At the same time every media vestige of the elite left is suffering crashing ratings or sales as thousands of people a month continue to cut the chord of media blabber.


Even the slavery platforms of social media who attempted to hijack the news forums from the mouthpieces of mainstream media to push the radical liberal agenda have blown their credibility as well, through their relentless efforts to violate every last bit of privacy in America.  The public views them as the greedy conduit for fake news.


The liberal house of cards is crashing down as the advocates for polarization, hatred and division are losing their voices to reason.  The underlying foundation for impeachment, besides self-preservation of the elitists and establishment, is that the general public is too stupid to fact check the fact checkers.


Only the People can protect America from harm.

Well, they were wrong.  The American public long ago recognized the dangers to our cherished Republic and the challenges to our Constitution and the attempts to restrict our freedom, rights and equality.


Maybe most politicians and certainly the media could be bought off with billions of dollars of campaign contributions and advertising, but not the public.  We were warned about the dangers by Eisenhower and Lincoln and others, and the people listened.


For the past century there has been a decline in political party influence, which the Dumpsters seem to have missed.  Once upon a time there were only two parties of consequence, the Democrats and Republicans.  In 2016, for the first time in our history, there were more non-party members voting than party.


In fact, here is what is in store for 2020 as the Independents continue to surge ahead of the old establishment parties, policies and politics.

Population Demographics

Total Population 18+                      250 million
Total Eligible Voters                       230 million

Total Registered Voters                 153 million
        Democrats                              48 million         31%
        Republicans                            44 million         29%
        Independents                          58 million         40%

2016 Votes cast                            136 million

The Democratic Debate Debacle

Nowhere is the interest of the public in public affairs more obvious than in the dismal crowds being drawn to the national debates of the herd of Democrat candidates.  Here is what happened over the past few months. 

Debate Watchers (Nielsen ratings)

First Debate                                  15 million
Fourth Debate                                 8.3 million     -46%  
Percent of Voters                                                   16%

Here is the liberal media admission that something is not right when the louder the noise for impeachment, the more people turn off the political camp gatherings called debates and find something better to do.


This is what Variety had to say about the 46% drop in viewers for the debate.

TV Ratings: Fourth Democratic Debate Draws 8.3 Million Viewers

Last night’s Democratic debate, which saw frontrunner Elizabeth Warren come under attack from all sides, drew around 8.3 million total viewers on CNN.

That viewership figure is down 46% on the first NBC debate which was watched by 15.3 million viewers, and also on the two previous CNN debates which garnered 10.7 million (down 22%) and 9 million (down 8%) respectively. None of the Democratic debates so far in this cycle have come near to the 24 million viewership figure posted by Donald Trump’s first debate on Fox News in August of 2015. According to CNN, 9.2 million viewers live streamed the debate in total on both the network’s and NY Times’ digital platforms.

--------------------------------------------

Two notes and there is nothing more to say about this flop of a reality show.  First, the Democratic Demolition Derby called debates has pushed the entire party off the cliff of reality.  They have stampeded so far to the radical left you might as well have Lenin, Trotsky and Stalin on the ballot.  Not even the real Democrats left standing can stomach the socialist agenda being dutifully articulated by the puppets on stage.


Trump Appoints Supreme Court Justice


What the Wizards of the Left are most afraid of is losing control of the Supreme Court to the moderate and conservative philosophies.  Well they will before the 2020 election and before they can impeach and remove Trump from office because Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg will retire before the election.


Justice Ginsberg has been the most powerful female voice in the history of our court and her actions, decisions and dissents have left a legacy for the future.  When she retires, Trump will appoint a conservative justice, his third appointment to the Supreme Court, and Senator McConnell will get it approved by the Senate.


For the first time there will be a clear conservative majority on our nation's highest court and the liberals will lose their ability to protect social programs, generate more liberal reforms, and to restrict conservative voices.  The result will setback the liberal left for decades to come and while they will not admit it, what scares the Trump haters more than Trump is the possibility of a conservative Supreme Court long after Trump has finished as president.


With her ongoing battles with cancer and her long and distinguished service to the nation, we should thank her for her dedication and service and let her prepare for her last battle on Earth.  She has earned the respect of all whether you agree with her or not, and she has brought great style, grace and humor to the court.

Rather than keep her on the bench until Trump can be impeached or wins re-election, she deserves time for herself, her family and preparing for the hereafter where she will be most welcome I am quite sure.


New DOJ Investigations to confirm Conspiracy Theories?

There are two Justice Department investigations still underway that can change the course of impeachment history by undermining the relentless false charges and claims of the Democrats and their Media Mouthpieces.


The Inspector General of the Justice Department is concluding an investigation of possible wrongdoing by government officials during the Trump election campaign.  This was originally supposed to be completed by June but the IG extended it for five months in order to pursue all the leads uncovered.


A second investigation by the Attorney General in which he appointed a career DOJ US Attorney as lead investigator is looking into the origins of the Trump campaign and the possible efforts through the Clinton campaign, Clinton Foundation, and Obama national security and intelligence people to spy on and undermine the Trump campaign.

This investigation has already led the DOJ to Australia, Italy, the UK, the Ukraine and Russia and to the infamous Steele dossier funded by the Clinton campaign and the Democratic National Committee, to the tune of millions of dollars.


If half of the conspiracies are proven there will be enough material for a long running TV series but the potential exposures could well threaten the very existence of the current Democratic party as well as a host of high officials in the Obama administration.  This should also be released in the next few weeks.
